DENVER (CBS4) - The Denver Outlaws have been in the Major League Lacrosse championship game four times, and they've lost all of them. But on Saturday they stopped that skid with a 12-11 win over the Rochester Rattlers to claim their first championship.

Drew Snider scored the game-winning goal with 56 seconds left in the game as the Outlaws outscored the Rattlers 6-1 in the fourth quarter.
